title: 1,1'-(Ethane-1,2-di-yl)dipyridinium bis-(1,2-di-cyano-ethene-1,2-di-thiol-ato-κ(2) S,S')cuprate(II).
abstract: In the title ion-pair complex, (C12H14N2)[Cu(C4N2S2)2], the complex anion exhibits a highly twisted coordination environment around the tetra-coordinated Cu(II) atom. The dihedral angles between the 1,2-di-cyano-ethene-1,2-di-thiol-ato ligands and between the two pyridine rings in the cation are 37.49 (3) and 29.18 (10)°, respectively. Weak C-H⋯N and C-H⋯S hydrogen bonds link the cations and anions into a three-dimensional network.
